Individual Details

Elizabeth "Betsy" Rhodes

(1784 - 1868)



Beals lists Betsey as daughter of William Wishard Jr's stepmother. Armstrong does not. According to the marriage date of Jacob Rhodes & Elizabeth and estimated birthdate of Betsey as well as a birthplace as Maryland, it's very questionable. A family Tree on FamilySearch gives her parents as Beacham Rhoades and Margaret McCarney - I'm sure Beacham Rhodes was her father - she names a son Beacham Rhoades Wishard.

1830 Census. Perry Twp, Marion Co, IN
Elizabeth Wishard: 1m -5, 2m 5-10, 1m 10-15, 1m 15-20; 1f 10-15, 1f 15-20, 1f age 40-50

There must have been some hesitation about marrying the second time. This was recorded twice: "HOOKER,William" "WISHARD,Elizabeth" 26-Oct-1831, as well as 25 Jun 1834.
